I'll wait for the GH recap

Hmmm…does my desire to see Twuan skate overshadow my desire to never see another rumble advertisement?

I like the new Antwuan, less doh doh doh, more mature and quiet skateboard killer it seems from his instagram. Incredible if he can stay sober etc. but I wouldn't judge him if he relapsed. it is so hard to stay on your lane when it's so easy to access and old patterns can easily show up. Very inspirational.

Fuck the bullshit, I hope ‘Twaun gets on Cariuma and Redbull. Maximum cash flow. The skate life is fleeting.
Hes the one dude I’d be stoked to see on the ‘ruma. Lace him up, give him some shirts and send that check.

I'd really rather see Antwuan do noseslide variations than the majority of other skating, but the absolute best is when he deviates from his expected bag of tricks (i.e. the fs flip in the post above)

Is SLS Select to SLS something like TedX is to TED?

Never heard of it.

For real. Hope he can make a living from skateboarding again. Such a wholesome dude too when he's sober.

If I understand correctly it’s basically a qualifying event for the rest of the SLS tour. You win SLS select, you earn a ticket to compete in the other stops with Yuto, Nyjah, Kelvin, etc.

Why they had this event after their first official stop in Chicago is beyond me.

The crowd gave him some respect and it was cool to see. Hopefully it was just 1st time jitters and he keeps coming around.

Damn.
When I saw he was gonna be in it I knew he wouldn't really have a chance at winning (obviously) but hoped he'd at least throw down a few of his classic bangers, maybe hit a nollie heel back noseslide bigspin out on the hubba in the single trick section.
That was just kinda sad, and I can't imagine the pressure he felt after getting so much hype and press.

Has to be the nerves.

Don't think he's ever competed like this before, def not anything this big with this many eyes on him.

Hopefully he comes back with a clear head next time.
